I was thinking of parser, yea
I’m not perfect either tbh. Sometimes I pull too much like you say. That being said we were in there for 3 hours and only made it 60% through. The mage in question did 60dps. The other mage did 120dps. Doing some quick math that is roughly one less enemy killed per minute than what we should be doing if she was on par with our other n00b mage. Everything cascades from there as a problem. The tank takes more damage, the healer has to heal and drink more, etc.
I don’t have a mage that is of a decent level but shouldn’t a mage in an instance be depleting their whole mana bar or at least trying to in each set of battles? They normally finished each set of pulls with 60-70% mana.
Some of your points may be it as well though.
Fire mage in this case.
For efficient dungeon clearing you usually don’t want dps having to drink every fight. I usually don’t get on people for sucking unless it’s a big boy heroic dungeon or something. Most people won’t receive it well anyway. It is a touchy subject.
What about when we wipe and they have a full mana bar. How does that make you feel 
In ESO you had to be doing the max DPS rotation based on logs. So annoying. An easy (hard mode) dungeon all of a sudden became impossible to queue for if you weren’t the class that had the best current DPS rotation even though normal people could clear it but it would take a few more minutes. Min/max.
When I played LOTRO which I thought was copy of WOW at the time, too much DPS would steal agro from the tanks before running out of stamina/mana if they dps’d too hard and that would cause a wipe. Some of the LOTRO dungeons were fucking epic imo.
If Cyrodiil in ESO wasn’t so god damn laggy every time I log in I’d play that still. The PVP zone is great otherwise.
Cheat code for wow is grinding primals during pointless work meetings
Got to almost 61 now on warlock, major regret going tailoring to start, seems like it would have been a lot better to get a gathering profession instead and level up tailoring later at 70. My other prof is enchanting, which seems to be pretty good gold and good for inventory management. TLDR; drop tailoring asap, level up like herbalism or mining, as I work up to 70? I have it at like 220 or so now.
I doubt the tailoring investment has been that big that it would be difficult to get back to 220 or whatever BUT…
One thing to consider is that with zero herb/mining you won’t be able to gather in Outlands so you’ll need to spend several/many hours leveling them to 300 before you can gather as you quest.

Oof don’t change from tailor ench for warlock there’s massive advantages for both at 70.
Yeah, I just meant, having only leveled tailoring to 220, I was thinking about dropping it, picking up herb or mining for the grind to 70, get some gold out of that, then dropping that and getting tailoring again when I can make use of it. But yeah thought about it more, probably just a waste of time with not enough return.
Probably more trouble than it is worth. It doesn’t take that long to level up the gathering professions but you will definitely need to spend like 4+ hours farming low level herbs. Skinning is not so bad because you can go into Uldamon and farm scorpions and similar for several levels but I think skinning is generally less lucrative anyway. If you can get your tailoring to 275 then you can sell your cooldowns and that may ease the cost a bit.
When you realize you play something different than them. WF race was exciting. It’s insane what level some people can play this game. Even after they realized that 50% isnt the finish line they found a way to get 5 % more dmg done before enrage.

lol blizzard. Was able to cancel subscription 1 day before billing cycle. 
Lol yesterday a message in our guild discord appeared where our MT, RL and guild officer announced that it will be his last raid tonight. He wants to create his own raid and guild because he wants to aim higher. So far our guild always reached ahead of the curve in the last 3 addons. Ofc there is a huge gap between our top players and the worst who always die. That might finally the point where I quit the game for good. Too many I know have left and raiding is the only thing that really interests me(the story is utter garbage). Even so the remaining guild officers said last night they are already in talks and got new people and a new tank on board we still will have lost some of our best dd’s but still have the movement cripples left. What hurts me that nobody talked to me. Somehow a lot knew it to happen for some time now. Hell on Saturday i joined him so he could get into an older raid via lfr for a mount hunt but he said nothing. I just dont hang out on discord every day if I am not in a m+ or in a raid. I hate the meaningless talk, the stupid forced laughs of some of our members and I usually want to watch something else during the daily grind. Am I great dd? No I hate dd but there are too many who only want to heal and most of the times I am at least the solid dd who doesnt die to stupid stuff and knows about boss abilities.
With the state of blizzard and the uncertainty about the future of the game I might finally have the strength to quit. Unfortunately my sub renewed few days ago for another 3 month.
anyone planning on playing wotlk?
consider making a toon on warmane (frostmourne competitive pve fresh season just began). I’m having a blast and you can spend like $30 if you want and get enough gold to bankroll a toon or two. I’m maining tank DK and am in heaven. seriously considering quitting my job and shit, it’s that good, but blizz is showing signs of fucking it up again. it’s so good they can fuck it up and i’d still play it.
TBC completely broke me. too much time spent hard carrying whiny man babies, I got fed up and rage quit p3. It broke me so bad I’d sooner play retail than TBC again, other than prepping all characters for wotlk release.
